Marché aux Vins
Le Marché des Vins is one of my favourite events of the seasonal calendar.
Festi Vini 2011
A fabulous day out which caters for every family member.
Gérald, representing Domaine de la Paleine for his 6th year was one of the 60 Pays de Loire vineyards to be invited.
Glorious sunshine and high temperatures aided the day’s festivities, enjoyment of artisans’ goodies and vignerons’ wines.
Having timed their return stays perfectly were our wonderful and fun loving clients, Lisa & John, Susan & Paul, both of whom we had had the great pleasure of welcoming to ‘La Bellevue’ last year.
